Running floppy games on a CD32
Hey mates, long time no posting here I wonder how many people do still remember me
I just found a very cheap CD32 being sold here in Brazil with no joypad and no cables. I was wondering, I still couldn't find an Amiga here, so a CD32 could be an option, considering I am most interested in the games indeed. Is it possible to run .ADF files on a CD32 ? |

Running ADF files is not possible at all ... there is no way to boot from an ADF file ...
And to use (external) floppy drives u need an expansion like SX-32 or SX-1 or the Elsat ProModule. WHDLoad could run from CD too, but a harddisk (SX-32, SX-1 etc. again) would be better then. Ciao, Rick ... |

Hey Shatterhand,
a CD32 games compilation is what you´re searching for: http://www.sumotorrent.com/files_20211.html or http://www.mininova.org/tor/181425 Or ask an EAB member with FTP |

No. (350,444,888)
That´s why you should go for the CD32 200 compilation. Every game on this disk is playable without a keyboard. |

You could just plug an A3000 or A4000 keyboard into the AUX socket!

Another option would be to get a PC keyboard adapter for the Amiga so you can use PC keyboard with the CD32.

Amiga will never die!

I use an A2000 keyboard on my CD32 with a cheap little PS/2-AT port adapter that I got down the street from a local PC shop.
You can also now buy cheap PC keyboard adapters for the CD32/A4000 on eBay. These are made to order I think, the guys selling them also make Playstation-CD32 controller adapters, so you don't even need a CD32 controller anymore, just any generic Playstation or Playstation 2 controller. |
